#bane digivolves

the way digimon tamers handles the whole "the population at large shouldn't know digimon are just running around" thing is so funny. there was an entire episode dedicated to the kids stressing out hardcore wondering how they'd possibly hide a giant red dinosaur; btw this was only an issue bc it was the first time guilmon digivolved, which made him too big to hide in his usual abandoned spot in the park, but also this is NEVER an issue for ANY of the digimon after that episode. they just de-digivolve off-screen. after a point the casual presence of digimon in public spaces is basically completely overlooked or outright ignored. they'll have scenes with the kids just walking down the fucking street with their digimon. at least with terriermon, who hangs out on henry's head/in his arms, most people assume he's a plush toy (it's a running gag with henry's younger sister, too). but there have been at least two scenes where takato is just WALKING AROUND around with his not-giant-but-still-large red dinosaur. in one of the first eps he tells people that guilmon is just a guy in a costume and i guess that's the show doing the bare minimum to cover its ass on this? but also at this point (end of the first season) most if not all of takato's classmates are aware of guilmon, have seen/hung out with them. digimon have to stay a secret guys!!1! but also it's really not that serious at all. and im not complaining it's just deeply amusing

losing my mind... im on the last episode of s1 of digimon tamers and rika just gave renamon an energy drink and the DELIVERY of renamon's line... "ohh...! my first gift...!" GOD I LOVE THEM
